Anti-Semitic incident in Argentina

An ugly anti-Semitic incident occurred yesterday (Sunday) in a second-league match in Argentina, amid the clashes between Atletico Atlanta and Nueva Chicago, after a distraught actor made a series of anti-Semitic moves toward the crowd.
The incident happened in the 69th minute, when Nueva Chicago midfielder Arnaldo Gunsales was stripped of a red card and performed a series of anti-Semitic movements, which included circumcision and wearing a dome to the Atlanta crowd, a group affiliated with the Jewish community.
In the game itself by the way, there were two more distances, one for each team, and both passed without special incident. In the end, Atlanta took advantage of the numerical advantage to beat Nueva Chicago and climb to first place, while its opponent remained deep at the bottom.
In response, Nueva Chicago released the following message: “The club negates the gestures made by actor Arnoldo Rodrigues, and will look at the disciplinary steps we will take. We apologize to all Atlanta fans and the Jewish community.”
The actor himself posted an apology on social media: “I want to apologize to the people of Athletico Atlanta and the Jewish community for what happened this evening. I was very embarrassed to see the video because I am not such a person and I never behaved like that. It was a moment of turmoil after I absorbed insults from the audience, But the response is unworthy. I hope the fans and the Jewish community will know how to accept my apology. ”
